"Gib mir die freiheit"

Die Jahre mit dir
sind voller Erinnerung
an einsame Naechte
so dicht neben dir

Aber jetzt ist mir klar
tief in dir ist es kalt
ewige Eiszeit
Aber jetzt ist mir klar
tief in dir istes kalt
gib mir die Freiheit

Im Licht war es dunkel
und kalt in der Sonne
im ewigen Winter
find ich keine Zukunft

Du baust eine Mauer
um deine Gefuehle

There are increasingly many recordings of Chinese music. I have heard most of those produced in Europe or North America, and am starting to be able to hear those from China, Hong Kong & Taiwan as well. In the latter case, there is a large variety as well as some difficulty obtaining them, so I will concentrate entirely on the so-called literati music which is my priority.

From the award-winning documentary, "Playing For Change: Peace Through Music", comes the first of many "songs around the world" being released independently. Featured is a cover of the Ben E. King classic Stand By Me by musicians around the world adding their part to the song as it travelled the globe.
